[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 4]This information has absolutely NOTHING to do with the intent of this chat forum; however, I think it needs to be seen by as many people as possible. I have verified it on SNOPES ([/size][/#800000][/font][url "http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/tyson.asp"][font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 4]http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/tyson.asp[/size][/#800000][/font][/url][font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 4]) and it is true. There is even a news release on the company website announcing the decision. I’m talking about the Tyson Foods corporation decision to do away with the Labor Day holiday at one of their plants in Arkansas in favor of a Muslim holiday in October. [mad] Tyson Foods says it has nothing to do with religion; rather it was a contract negotiation decision. Here is a link to the news release: [/size][/#800000][/font][url "http://www.tyson.com/Corporate/PressRoom/ViewArticle.aspx?id=3012"][font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 4]http://www.tyson.com/Corporate/PressRoom/ViewArticle.aspx?id=3012[/size][/#800000][/font][/url][font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 4].[/size][/#800000][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 4]Here is another link to a TV station in Nashville, TN (WSMV) that did an article on it: [/size][/#800000][/font][url "http://www.wsmv.com/news/17063986/detail.html"][font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 4]http://www.wsmv.com/news/17063986/detail.html[/size][/#800000][/font][/url][font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 4]. There is a survey poll on this page asking if you support the decision. As of this morning, 2076 respondents had voted – 97% were opposed to the decision to swap the holidays.

[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 4]I’ve written and sent an email detailing my displeasure with Tyson Food’s decision to the contact person listed in the news release. I strongly urge you to do the same. [/size][/#800000][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 4]Before anybody starts bashing me, I AM NOT anti-Muslim. Muslims are as welcome as Baptists, Jews, Catholics, or Mormons to practice their beliefs in this great country of ours. However, I draw the line when it comes to FORCING others to join them in those beliefs and practices. Tyson Foods and their union just did that.[/size][/#800000][/font]
